If you have kids, or sweet nieces and nephews or nanny for a youngster, you should definitely try this because: 1)it's soooo easy and 2)it's quite fun!

All you need is:1/4 cup cornstarch 1/4 cup cold waterA few drops of food coloringAnd...Voila, you have chalkboard paint!

Take an old paintbrush and go outside and enjoy the gorgeous weather all while decorating that driveway!

I watch a 3 year old girl and she loved not only painting with it but also making it!

I just had to share this because I couldn't get over how easy it was and besides, it's been too long since I've mentioned anything about crafting!

On a completely different note, no FB=cleaning and organizing! I turned my anxiety yesterday into cleaning and organizing the kitchen cabinets! The spice cabinet was the worst. This first picture shows what was all crammed inside (pretty much same order also!!) and the second is the after!

Notice all those spice jars in the top of the first picture? Those were filled with old spices I've never used!! Looks like I will have something for a craft some day! Also, that bag filled with trash was old outdated stuff that was crammed in there also!

It felt quite good to get the kitchen cabinets in order...it made me not even miss FB that much.

Wait, who am I kidding? I definitely still missed it!

Anyways, hope Lent is treating everyone well so far! And if you want an easy craft-go try that chalkboard paint!

Nice rack. :) hee hee. I am off fb, too, and it is hard. That is how I keep up with people! I had to just text my neighbor to ask when her baby is due and to let me know when she has it because I'm off fb and have no idea what's going on.

About me:

I am a Catholic woman who is madly in love with her husband (5 years), struggling with PCOS and beyond thrilled and (still) shocked that on 6/2/12 we received our first ever BFP...just a week before our 5 year anniversary!!!.
